Really needs to be Raspberry PI compatible to take advantage of the growing libraries.

Really needs to be Raspberry PI compatible to take advantage of the growing libraries.
- Nursie 14y agoReally? It surprises me that Pi compatibility is a criteria for stuff, though I know it's popular. Are we talking pin-compatibility? AFAICT the Pi is just another linux on a single board device. It's low cost but otherwise fairly unremarkable.
- alexchamberlain 14y agoThe marketing has been pretty spectacular.
- Nursie 14y agoOh true! I'm just wondering why compatibility would be an issue. It's open source baby, we can rebuild it!
- davidw 14y agoI'm not even sure what "compatibility" means in this context. You can run executables for one on the other? But you can swap out the OS on the Pi, so... I'm just confused.
- ivix 14y agoThis kind of thing is what has really annoyed me about the Pi 'movement'. "Raspberry Pi compatible" means nothing. It's a totally standard ARM based linux computer, of which there are a huge (and growing) number.
- steevdave 14y agoBeing as the A10 is armv7, it's already possible to run more on it than on the Pi. Let us move forward, not backward.
